After a summer break Candice and Steph are back to talk books, movies and music, with only a side of feminism and social justice.
Candice read some books on break and Steph started a dance class.
** We were together in real space with lots of distance so there's a bit of a big echoey room sound, and lots of talking all over each other. We were excited. Deal with it.

The Village Podcast from The Bookshelf

Hey everyone, we are back! If you thought the store closed to the public and working from home would keep us from recording, you were almost right.

We check in with each other, chat about popular reads for strange times, and coping mechanisms.
Now that we are all staying home all the time, we want to know either what you miss most or what you have found you don't miss at all.
